Celebrating International Box Wine Day
Boxed wine has come a long way—it's so much more than just Franzia! More wineries are now embracing the convenience of bag-in-box packaging for their wines. Robin Renken from Crushed Grape Chronicles celebrates International Boxed Wine Day with the benefits, and some great recommendations including Tablas Creek, Herisson, Schplink, Cedric Malbec, Juliet, Field Recordings, and many others.
Here are some quick facts:
A typical box holds the equivalent of 4 bottles and stays fresh for 6 weeks to 3 months. Boxed wine is perfect for fresh, easy-drinking styles because the design keeps out air and light. However, it’s not ideal for wines you’d want to age—at least not yet! Don't let that stop you from exploring!
